About Nrityagram Dance Ensemble

Nrityagram, meaning Dance Village, is a one-of-a-kind community where dance is not just practiced but lived. Founded by the visionary Protima Gauri, it is a cultural landmark dedicated to keeping alive India’s rich traditions while reimagining them for the future.

Here, the ancient gurukula way of life is at the heart of learning. Students and teachers live together in an environment where discipline, creativity, and philosophy intertwine. More than a training ground, Nrityagram nurtures artists who embody mindful living, holistic practice, and a deep pursuit of excellence.

For over three decades, our village has been home to an Open School, an internationally renowned Dance Ensemble, and vibrant outreach programs. Together, they form a living ecosystem of art, community, and innovation.

At Nrityagram, dance is more than art - it is a way of life.
